How shrewd Business Men Have Solved
Great Problem.
"Is there a fatality among our promi.
nent men, Is a question that we often
ask; 1t is q question that perplexes our
leading medical men, and they are at A
loss 10 know how to answer it.
We sometimes think that if the pbysi-
clans would give part of the energy 10
the consideration Of this question that
they give to combating other schools of
practice, it might be satisfactorily an.
swered.
The fights of "isms' reminds us often
OF the quarrels of old Indian tribes. that
were only happy when they were annihi.
lating each other.
III allopathy makes a discovery that
promises good 10 the race, Homeopathy
derides 1t and breaks down its influence.
Ii Homeopathy makes a discovery that
promises to be a boon to the race. Allo-
, pathy attacks it.
1t is absurd that these schools should
fancy that all of good is in their methods
and none in any other.
Fortunately for the people, the merit
which these "isms" will not recognize.
is recognized by the public, and this
public recognition, taking the form of q
demand upon the medical profession,
eventually compels it TO recognize it.
Is it possible that the question has
been answered by shrewd business men ?
A prominent man once said to an in.
quirer, who asked him how he got rich.
Il got rich because l did things while
other people were thinking about doing
them. 1t seems to us that the public
have recognized what this fatality Is, and
how 1t can be met, while the medical
profession have been %wrangling about it.
by q careful examination Of insurance
reports we find that there has been a
a sharp reform with reference to exami-
nations land that no man can now get
any amount of insurance who has the
least development of kidney disorder),
because they find that sixty out of every
hundred in this country do either directly
or indirectly, suffer from kidney disease.
Hence, no reliable company will insure
a man except after a rigid urinary exami.
nation.
This reminds us of a little instance
which occurred o short time ago. A fel-
low editor was an applicant for a respec-
table amount Of Insurance. He was ne.
jected on examination. because, unknown
to himself, Ai9 i ,neys were diseased.
fhe5hrewd agent, however. did 10, Give
up the case, lie had an eve to- bualne
and to his commission, and said, Don't
you worry: you get q half dozen bottles

it-take 1t according to directions and in
about a month come around, and we will
nave another examination. | know you
will find yourself all right and will get
your policy"
The editor expressed surprise at the
agents faith, but the latter replied: "This
point is a valuable one. Very many in.
surance agents all over the country.
when they find n customer rejected for
this cause, give similar advice, and
eventually he gets the insurance"
What are VIC to infer from such cir
cumstanccs? Have shrewd insurance men
as well as other shrewd business men,
found the secret answer to the inquiry ?
Is 1t possible that our columns have been
proclaiming, in the form Of advertise.
ments, what has proved q blessing in
disguise to millions, and yet by many
ignored as an advertisement?
In our files we find thousands OF strong
testimonials for Warmers safe cure, no
two alike, which could not exist except
upon a basis of truth; indeed, they are
published under a guarantee of S., 900 to
any one who will ~disprove. their correct
ness. and this offer has been standing, we
are told, for more than four years.
Undoubtedly this article, which is sim.
ply dealing out justice, will be considered
as an advertisement and be rejected by
many rs such.
We have not space nor time to discuss
the proposition that a poor thing could
succeed to the extent that this great
has succeeded, could not become
popular without merit even il pushed
by q Vanderbilt or an Astor.
Hence we take the liberty of telling our
that it is a duty that they owe to
themselves to investigate the matter and
reflect carefully, for the statements pub
Iished are subject to the refutation Of the
world. None have refuted them; on the
contrary, hundreds Of thousands have
believed them and proved them true, and
n believing have found the highest
measure OF satisfaction, that which mon.
" cannot buy, and money cannot take
way.
